I've had this jacket for almost a year and I can say after wearing it in different situations and conditions I'm pretty happy with it.
I'm 6' 190lbs and the XL fits great. I've done a lot of adventuring and don't have any tears or damage to the jacket. With the rain liner in it kept me dry in very heavy rain, no leaks.
I'm not thrilled with the Power Ranger styling but that seems to be almost unavoidable in motorcycle jackets. Definitely pricey, good jackets can be found for less.

I've had this jacket for several months now and I have to say I'm not too thrilled with it. While it is definitely a well constructed piece it has many drawbacks.
First, is the overall weight. For a summer only jacket it is pretty heavy which is not what you want on a hot day. Next, is the horrible design of the collar. It's very annoying having the collar sticking out stabbing you in the neck when the jacket is zipped up 2/3 of the way. On a hot day I don't want to have to zip the jacket up to my neck.
As far as fit goes I'm 6' 190lbs and while the torso fits good the sleeves are definitely too tight. Also, for the price it should include a zip out windbreaker liner. When I ride in to work in the middle of the day it's hot but when I go home at night the temperature drops. It would be nice if the jacket was a little more versatile.
Gaerne G-Adventure Boots This sport minded boot will keep your feet dry when the riding gets wet. Lightweight full grain leather construction provides a comfortable fit and long lasting wear. This boot was designed for the adventure touring, dual sport and ATV rider in mind. Made in Italy for superb quality!
I've been wearing these boots for about two months now and have mixed feelings. Comfort wise I have no complaints, after maybe a day or two it was broken in and I have no pressure points, walking around is not a problem at all, they're actually quite comfortable.
The problems I have with the boot are the buckles and the velcro at the top. I know this isn't a high end boot but the buckles just seem cheap, they just seem like they'll break, not a lot of confidence. The top buckle is especially problematic, the two parts of the buckle seem to be at different angles making it difficult to close, this is on both left and right. My friend bought these and he noticed the same thing.
Also, the velcro at the top needs to go around the boot more. Unless you have massive calfs or always tuck your pant leg the velcro barely catches.
